Wishlist - migrating from 3dsMax to Rhino

[mcvltd]

I'm looking at migrating my rendering over to Rhino from 3dsMax and have the following wishlist of features. I think some of these have been covered by other requests, but it's always good to re-iterate!


1) The frame buffer colour correction curve doesn't save with the Rhino file. It does in the max version and I find this a great time saver.

2) It would be nice to be able to composite multiple maps with control over the blend modes - like the composite matl in max.

3) Colour correction for maps - hue, saturation, greyscale and a colour correction curve (like we have in the VFB).

4) Fog - with near and far falloff and an option to 'not affect background'. Also would be good to be able to select a texture for this (ie vray sky).

5) Copy and paste maps in the material editor...pleeeeaaaassssseeee!!!!! Not having this is a killer!!

6) Lock the rendering to a specified viewport.

7) A way to retrieve the vray progress window (with the cancel rendering button on it) if it's closed (stupidly) halfway through a render. Maybe this exists already?

8 ) More noise textures (like in MasterBercon's noise maps for 3dsMax).

Thanks in advance!

Oh, and another one..

- a small image preview when selecting bitmaps.

That one is easy to solve,just change the way windows display your files.

As for all the others we can only wish,there is still a lot of things missing from the max version.I don't know if vrayfor Rhino will ever be on the same level.I doubt it.
